Handsome Detective
The Part 94
Arvan arrives in front of the home where Raka lives. A little hesitant Arvan got out of the car staring at the children studying. But among the children, there was no Raka there.
" What is Raka inside...?" Arvan Mumbles.
Without Arvan noticing, someone stood behind him with a sharp look.
" Who are you looking for...?" said Raka flat.
The shocked Arvan instantly turned his body facing the direction of the sound source.
" She...!" lirih Arvan's.
Arvan immediately clutched the tiny body of his son. Without feeling the tears escaped just so wet his cheeks. Adam who saw their interaction from afar felt calm because Raka could accept the presence of her papa.
Adam returns to the office to look after Erina as ordered by Arvan. He doesn't want any more mistakes.
" Go home, papa and mama can't live without you." said Arvan.
" Papa why come here again? Didn't you come and go again...?" the boy's flat face looked exactly like his papa.
" Uncle Adam didn't let my mom and dad see you. Go home, my mom is not okay now. He remembered something bad in the past in that house." said Arvan.
" What bad event...?" ask Raka.
" Maybe your guess is correct, it's possible that Aunt Selly is hiding in that house. Mama said, there was a basement in the house, but she didn't know where the door was..."
" Really...? Raka never saw any doors leading to the basement, pa..."
" Therefore, Raka went home to see Mama. We can ask Mama slowly." persuaded Arvan.
While talking seriously with his father, suddenly the mother of the home approached them.
" Raka, who is he...? Why talk outside? Come in, we have to keep the parlour safe. Can't talk to just anyone on the street, maybe the one you meet is not a good person." said the mother of the home.
" Meet, ma. I'm Raka's parents, Arvan Sebastian." said Arvan as he reached out.
" I'm the babysitter at this parlor, sir. Thank you for your kindness so far that has helped this home..."
" Help what...?" asked Arvan in wonder.
" Don't Mr. Donor stay in this parlor...?" ask the home mom.
" Papa doesn't know, ma'am. All donations are taken care of by Uncle Hans who used to pick me up here." said Raka.
" Oh, I think Mr. Arvan knows. You see, the donation is on behalf of the company." replied the mother of the home.
The three of them went inside the house and chatted for a while with the housewife. After that, Raka invited her papa to enter the room.
" Pa, Raka's already installed some cameras there. We can monitor them from here." said Raka.
" I'm sorry, dear. You should be able to understand the talent you have. From now on, papa will never get in the way of your wishes again..."
" really? Papa didn't lie, did he...?"
" Yes, but there is one condition..."
" What, pa...?"
" We'll do it together. Papa's sure we'll be great working partners..."
" Thank you, pa..." Raka hugged her papa tightly.
" I love you, my son." Arvan smiled back.
Due to fatigue monitoring the cctv and talking, the two of them fell asleep until the afternoon. They are very good while hugging.

The newly awakened Erina immediately searches for her husband's whereabouts. When checking his phone there were several messages coming in.
Erina was shocked when Samuel asked her whereabouts. Samuel invites her to meet at a cafe.
" Tumben Sam invited me to meet, what happened...?" mumbling Erina.
Erina did not immediately reply to Samuel's message, but looked for her husband first. In the room there was only her own, the husband who had accompanied her to sleep had gone somewhere.
Out of her room, Erina only saw that Adam was sleeping soundly on the sofa. Erina went back to her room and called her husband but there was no answer. Erina just sent me a message that she was going to meet Sam at cafe XX.
Erina intended to wake Adam to take him but was undone because she saw a tired face on the man who had always been faithful to serve him.
" Adam, I went for a while to meet Samuel. When you wake up, pick me up at cafe XX.." Erina's message on the piece of paper she put on the table near Adam's bed.
Erina left without anyone's knowledge. He also forgot his phone which was still in the room where he was sleeping earlier.
Erina exited the office by intercepting the taxi passing in front of her. He told the taxi driver to go faster because he didn't want Sam to wait long.
Not half an hour later, Erina arrived at the place Samuel had determined. He was looking for a man who had been his best friend since childhood.
" Sam...!" greet Erina with her smile.
" Hey..you finally came too." said Sam with a smile.
" Have you waited a long time...?" ask Erina.
" Not yet, just arrived. You want to order something...?"
" No, I'll just drink..."
" Rin, I'm actually going to take you somewhere..."
" Where...?"
" I want to visit places where we spend a lot of time together. I miss the moment when we laugh and cry together..."
" But, Sam. I can't go too long without my husband's permission..."
" Yes, Sam. I'm married..."
They were silent for a while, until the waiter came to bring their order.
" Please sir, Miss." said the waiter.
" Thank you.." said Erina.
They talked while finishing their drinks.
" Rin, would you like...? Just sec. After that I will take you home." persuaded Samuel.
" But, Sam, my husband will be angry if I go alone with you..."
" Your husband is very possessive, are you happy with your marriage...?"
" Of course I'm happy, at least I'm not as tormented as I used to be..."
" Do you love her? The man who has destroyed your future." said Samuel by looking closely at the woman who had filled the days.
" What do you mean...? How do you know about her...?" erina asked in shock.
" Oh that, I know from ART in your house." replied Sam nervously.
" Really?"
" Yes, let's go to the night quickly. I want to remember our good times..."
Samuel pulled Erina's arm out of the cafe towards where her car was parked. Erina just resigned though a little wary because she remembered her husband's message.
" Could it be that Sam was involved with Selly's brother...?" inner Erina.
" Why are you daydreaming...? It doesn't seem like you've seen each other for five more years, you've changed a lot." Samuel said.
" Changed what, Sam...?"
" It's like your heart isn't as close as it used to be to me, I feel like you're keeping your distance from me. I miss our old togetherness..."
" Nothing has changed, Sam. You're my best friend forever..."
Samuel was speechless with Erina's words which disappointed him. Sam has more feelings for Erina.
" I'm glad you still think of me as your best friend. Stay the same Erina as before, crying on my shoulder, laughing in my hand..."
" I also hope you'll never change, Sam. Be my best friend, who never hurt me, always there when I need a backrest..."
Erina looked at Samuel face fixedly. There was something different about Sam's countenance when Erina expressed the contents in her heart. Erina wanted to test whether Samuel was still the same as before or not.
" Never betray our friendship, Sam. You're the only person I've trusted since then..." Erina held Samuel's hand tightly.
Samuel was stunned by Erina's deep words piercing his heart. The man just kept silent not knowing what to say.
" Mm... Rin, we're almost there. Will you close your eyes for a second? I have a surprise for you." said Samuel.
" Why do I have to close my eyes...?" murmur Erina.
" It's just a minute, Rin.." persuaded Samuel.

While in the orphanage, Arvan and Raka are only awakened when the mother wakes them up. Arvan checks his phone while Raka opens his laptop to monitor the cctv.
Arvan was shocked by the message his wife sent. Erina asked permission to meet Samuel. The message was sent over an hour ago.
" Erina went to the man, why am I feeling so uncomfortable.." Arvan said.
Arvan tried to contact Erina but there was no answer. He was very worried because when checking the position of his phone, the location was still inside his office building.
" Gosh, why is Erina's phone in the office...? What is this really...?" Arvan Mumbles.
Arvan contacts Adam who is in charge of looking after Erina.
" Adam, where are you...?" shouted Arvan.
["I'm sorry, sir.I'm looking for Miss at cafe XX. Once again I apologize for not being able to carry out my duties properly." ] said Adam feeling guilty.
" The base is useless...!" arvan Umpat.
Arvan is furious that Adam let Erina go alone to meet Samuel. He immediately disconnected his phone.
" Pa, look at the person who entered the gate of the house." exclaimed Raka pointing at his laptop.
" Who...?" Arvan was observing the man.
" Raka was like he had seen that man, pa.." said Raka.
" What time is the recording...?" arvan asked trying to remember the man in the tape.
" About three hours ago..."
" Fuck, that guy's so outrageous...!"
